You can easily get locked in to some theme builder or UI toolkit. half the WP folks I know swear by X (genesis theme, etc) and will just rewrite everything in theme X if they take over a project. You're not 'locked in' to WP, you're 'locked in' to themes and plugins.

Do they even offer VPS storage in units smaller than a GB these days? No one cares about a 20MB binary.

For what it's worth, I'm running the absolute cheapest DigitalOcean droplet money can buy ($5/mo) and that comes with 25GB of NVME storage as standard.

The smallest VPSes that i've found are the Scaleway Stardust instances, which have 10 GB of storage: https://www.scaleway.com/en/stardust-instances/

Everything is relative. I just downloaded a Xerox firmware update that was almost 500 MB.
